THE WALCH ROBBERY.
No Clue to the Papers Announced-Other
Stolen Goods Identified.

There have been no new developments
in the robbery case OF the box from the law
office of Mr.. A. G. Whittemore. The Off
GERS, however, have ascertained some new
facts bearing directly on the case which

will lead to the recovery of the papers.
Several articles have been identified as be-
longing to merchants in the city, among
them being the two pairs of trousers,
which had upon them the private mark of
Percy & Wheeler, who have been in bust
ness but few days. These were stolen
Friday, the only time the woman was in
the store since it came into their posses
sion. She claims to have purchased them
of the tramps Field and Morris who were
taken to Rutland a week ago.
Messrs. Lyman d Allen identify the
flouncing and also the piece of uncut
black silk. &. H. Kinsley identifies
the all over embroidery and the brocade
velvet, and NJ. ID. Mcmahon the overshoes.
Davis is still confined on suspicion. The
woman has son about 10 years old, whose
name is Cheeseboro. She has been arrest
ed upon some charge in Saratoga, but
nothing further can be found out She
has been in the city but two or three
months.

The Anarchists, Case.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2l.-At an early
hour this morning the conference Of
the supreme court was uncOmiortablY
crowded with lawyers and newspaper men
who We're waiting to hear the proceedings
in the Chicago anarchist case, and counsel
for the defense were in whispered consult
alton. At twenty minutes to ! | Justice
Harlan entered and soon as the room be
came quiet, and without waiting for any
motion or application from the prisoners
counsel began delivering his opinion with
slow and deliberate. cnuncjatiOn. After
giving "A brief summary of the application
he said:
eff | should allow a writ of error it is
quite certain that counsel would have to
repeat before that court the argument
which they propose now to make before
me. On the other hand, If | should re-
fuse the writ the defendants would be at
liberty to renew their application before
any other Justice of the supreme court,
and as human life and liberty are involved,
that justice might feel obliged, nOtwith
standing a previous refusal of a writ, to
look into the case and determine for him
self whether a writ of error should be
allowed. If he also refused, the defend
ants could take the papers to some other
member of the court, and so on until each
Justice granted a writ. In this case it
is manifest that delays might occur
that would be so very embarrassing in view
ofthc short time intervening between this
day and the date fixed forcarrying into eff
feet the judgment of the state court, and
as the case is ore of a very serious charac-
ter in whatever aspect it may be regarded,
| deem it proper to make the order which
| now do hat council present this appli-
cation in open session to the end that ear
ly and final action may be had upon the
question whether that court has iurisdic-
ton to review the judgment in this case.
There is no reason why it may not be pre-.
sentcd to the court this session to-day
Counsel may state that the application is
made to the court pursuant to my dircc-

Stole the Menu Cards.

An hour previous to the banquet to
President Cleveland, in this city, about
twenty ladies succeeded in getting into
the hall to obtain a private view. While
the colored walters were arranging the
tables about ten of the hand painted
menu and toast cards disappeared. Some
of the visitors are leading society bellies of
the West side, and the members Of the
merchants committee waXed wrOth when
,hev heard the fact. As each Of the pro-
grammcs had cost 81 80, the minimum
number had been orc cred and there zone
to spare. 1t was found that there was
not even one left for Mrs. Cleveland
when she went into the balcony to retain
a souvenir. Col. Krez calamity contri-
butcd his for this purpose, and other
guests somewhat reluctantly gave theirs
to be presented to the ladies Of her party.
They were much pleased to get them,
and laid them, on a chair during the pro
gress of the banquet. The chair was
near the balcony door, and while they
were listening to the toasts somebody
grabbed them and fed unobserved.

A Wild Man az Large.

PATERSON, N. j., Oct. 2l.-Green-
wood Lake is one of the summer resorts
to which Jerseymen and Gothamites flee
when the summer sun begins to slant its
tJrrid rays. The lake is In the midst of d
billy and well wooded and sparsely set
tied country. There has been talk for
years OF the presence of a wild man in
these woods, and the report was verified
when the creature was captured. But he
got away again to his native wilds, and
the story of his capture and escape is in
teresting as well as exciting.
For a few days past the simple people
of the little mountain hamlet of Noun
tain View, in Passaic county, have been
in a state of alarm and excitement over
the sudden appearance of the wild man
in the woods near the town. Hunting
parties were formed to capture him. They
secured the woods in every direction, but
could discover no trace of him.
A large hunting party which secured
the woods tracked the wild man, and after
a long chase brought him to bay. He
turned on his pursuers and fought with
frantic desperation. He seized a club
and swung it about so that it was danger
Gus to get near him. At last two of the
hunters seized him. The wild man strug
gled with almost "superhuman strength.
Not until he was utterly exhausted were
his captors able to overpower him. They
bound him securely and took him to the
town. The wild man could talk, but
about all he said was:
Il want grass. Give me some grass.
| am hungry
Inquiries concerning who he was and
why he lived in the woods brought no
answer. He seemed to be about 80 years
old, though his age would not be easy to
determine. His garments were in tatters
and he seemed to be on the verge OF starry
alton. His eyes were big and wild, his
face was thin and haggard. As there
was no jail in the little tow to put him in
and as the inhabitants were all afraid of
him, he was taken to the Delaware u
L~ackawanna railway station and lockedup
in a little shelter for a switchman.
Station Agent Bean telographed here re
questing that policemen be sent to Noun
tain View to take the man into custody.
While the excited inhabitants Of Noun
tain View were awaiting the arrival of the
police the wild man wrenched the wooden
bars from the window OF the little shanty
where he was confined and jumped out.
He ran for the woods, with scores of peo-
pie running and shouting after HIM. They
kept up the chase across fields and
through woods, but the wild man ran
with the speed of deer. He reached the
forest, plunged into the thickct and dis
appeared An organized effort will be
made to capture him.

interest their friends subscribed a purse of

his superior science. In the first round,
however, Bcauregard got in a terrific blow
on Durham's face, knocking him down
and securing the first blood. Eight rounds
were fought. the first one as well as the
last one ending clearly in favor Of Bcaure-
gard. At the call of time to the eighth
round Durham was unable to come to the
